The P&R #2 and Gentle Clean have cleared up my long-standing rosacea. This is really great!

I have been using the classic formulation and my skin looks fabulous!! and I love that soap I got from you!!! I just wanted to write and let you know how extraordinarily pleased I am with the whole thing!!! Good skin!!! Thank you!!! I am one of those people who can't use much of anything on my skin without having a reaction, and I have rosacea, now almost gone. so I am doubly happy about the whole thing!!! Thank you!! Send me vats of the stuff if you ever decide to stop making it!!

I tried your suggestion to go easy and start with P&R 2. I still put a hydroxy acid afterwards. Although this is only my third day with these products, I am very thrilled to report that the Rosacea (or whatever it is on my cheeks) is virtually gone today. This is the first time in three years. I have tried numerous creams, skin care, and prescriptions all this time, spending thousands of dollars, and nothing really helped. I can't believe I didn't even need the Retin-A. If these results continue you can consider me another lifelong fan of your products.

Rosacea (also called " The Curse of the Celts") is a common, treatable skin disorder that occurring most often among fair-skinned individuals of northern European descent. The ailment afflicts approximately 1 in 10 adults, who are usually in their 40s or 50s. A person with classic rosacea has many tiny, visible red blood vessels in the central part of the face. Rosacea starts as a tendency to blush easily. Facial and neck flushing may accompany the blushing. With time the redness begins to persist, creating a constant, rosy glow created by dilated blood capillaries near the surface of the skin. After the redness appears, pimples may break out. As time goes on, the affected skin of begins to swell and thicken. The condition is not caused by alcoholic intake.

The cause of rosacea is unknown but is is primarily a disorder of blood vessel growth patterns. The disease is most prevalent in fair-skinned individuals who have extensive sun damage to their skin. Women are more likely to get rosacea on the cheeks and chin, while men are more affected on the nose. For most people it tends to get better and then worsen (flare up). Conditions that seem to worsen rosacea include sun exposure, hot drinks, alcohol, spicy foods, and extremes of hot or cold temperature.

There are effective medications for rosacea. Oral drugs include antibiotics and, in rare cases, isotretinoin (Accutane). Topical agents used for treatment include MetroGel® is a topical antibiotic and Sulfacet-R® which is also used for seborrheic dermatitis. In addition, a water-based Color Blender can be mixed with the Sulfacet-R® which eliminates the need for other color make-ups. It usually takes about two months to eliminate or reduce rosacea, then the dosage of drug is reduced.

If medications are not effective, laser therapy may be used to destroy the small blood vessels in the face. This laser treatment seems to decrease acne as well as the skin redness.

Gentle skin care is is highly recommended and the use of very mild soaps. Persons with rosacea should avoid abrasives, scrubs, astringents, and other agents that irritate the face. For women, a green-tinted concealer under makeup dampen the redness of rosacea.
